Thanksgiving Morning 5K and Fun Run
"THE SPARTA TRADITION BEFORE THE TRADITION"
USATF # NJ08517JHP
Sparta, New Jersey
November 26, 2009
Bringing together our past community members and present to benefit our future!
 
What better way to spend a beautiful Thanksgiving morning than with other members from the community who share a common goal…educational excellence for our children attending Sparta Public Schools. Before guests, before football and before the feast, come walk, run, jog, skip or trot and have fun while making a difference! A 1-mile fun run is part of the festivities for those at least 6 years old.
